36 Days

Cropped image of Erasmus von Rotterdam
Hans Holbein the Younger
Oil on limewood, 1523

Reads like 36 years
This strange chapter
In this anomalistic volume
This mendacium vade mecum

We turn the pages
Day by day
An exposition of aberrant acts
Written in crayon

But we are the truth
In the face of untruth
We are the honesty
On the field of dishonor

We are the art
On the canvas of thought
The harmonic timbre
In the vibration of souls

We are the love
That will destroy the enmity
We are the liaison
To Cicero
